Ever since He Wenjie received the news that Mrs. Bao was secretly investigating Andi, he had been constantly preparing to make a move against the Bao family. Yet more than two months passed without He Wenjie seeing any further action from Mrs. Bao; he did not even hear a single mention of her during his conversations with Andi.
In He Wenjie's view, this situation could mean only two things: either Mrs. Bao had not fallen for Mrs. Wei's trap—meaning that while she had investigated Andi, she chose not to interfere in her son's relationship—or Bao Yifan had successfully stopped his mother, nipping any potential conflict in the bud.
Whichever the reason, He Wenjie considered it good news, because he might soon lack the extra energy to keep an eye on Mrs. Bao. Guan Jiuer was already over seven months pregnant. Originally, He Wenjie wanted to hire a nanny for her and have the family temporarily move into the house inherited from He Yunli. However, Guan Jiuer could not bear the thought of having a stranger hovering around her all day. After discussing it, Guan Jiuer invited her mother to stay, ensuring someone would be there to take care of her when He Wenjie was away.
